Psalm 32

Psalm 32New International Version (NIV)

Psalm 32

1 Blessed is the onewhose transgressions are forgiven,whose sins are covered.2 Blessed is the onewhose sin the Lord does not count against themand in whose spirit is no deceit.

3 When I kept silent,my bones wasted awaythrough my groaning all day long.4 For day and nightyour hand was heavy on me;my strength was sappedas in the heat of summer.[b]

5 Then I acknowledged my sin to youand did not cover up my iniquity.I said, “I will confessmy transgressions to the Lord.”And you forgavethe guilt of my sin.

6 Therefore let all the faithful pray to youwhile you may be found;surely the rising of the mighty waterswill not reach them.7 You are my hiding place;you will protect me from troubleand surround me with songs of deliverance.

8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.9 Do not be like the horse or the mule,which have no understandingbut must be controlled by bit and bridleor they will not come to you.10 Many are the woes of the wicked,but the Lord’s unfailing lovesurrounds the one who trusts in him.

11 Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous;sing, all you who are upright in heart!
